For Xmas Clinique have tons of great gift solutions for the man in your life. This is a great way to stop him using your makeup!! The men I tried this on loved it. Men get dry skin after shaving and love being pampered just the same as we do.
PERSONAL STYLIST LONDON
I love Zac Posen since I bought the most sensationally tailored Capri pants in the world I wore them out!! This season phenomenal tailoring and bright pop art colours make for a colourful delight.
This red carpet dress imaginatively uses gold stars across the bias to show off the silhouette. Movie Star glamorous and feminine.
This lovely dress uses zigzags to cross the body and the polka dot silk blouse adds a demure but see through sexy touch.
FUR MANIA: Warm Shape to the Season
Already thinking about the temperatures plummet to below freezing we are all looking for something chic to wear which will also keep us warm.
Michael Kors AW09
Fur is back in a big way, presented on AW 09/10 collections in bold colours, shapes, and sizes both real or faux.
Christian Dior AW09
( Of course, despite such popularity as a trend it remains a controversial material and you can expect an increase in the antics of groups such as PETA as a result.)
Michael Kors AW09
For AW 09/10 season, fur it is not just about coat or jacket: designers were so creative and gave it a new shape and visual interest in using it to emphasize collars and cuffs, sleeves and pockets, borders and edges and combining it with materials such as fabric or leather in innovative ways.

The collection launched in Dec 2007 ,named after Sienna’s birthday is a runaway success story.
The eyes have it.
How you stand, your body language and most importantly your coded eye contact is the difference between success and another night in with the cat. Learn how to project the right image.
The sideways glance.
This is the first inkling of sexual interest, often combined with wrapping hair round ear. the woman will look, and then look away at the man of her dreams. The head is lowered and tilted away to hide often outright brazen staring.
The prolonged gaze.
In this second stage, the woman will seek to force eye contact it indicates sexual attraction although often still accompanied by looking away when too uncomfortable.
The total body look.
This is an up and down look mostly used by men, to leave the woman in no doubt what his intentions are. The recipient may feel slightly flustered but also flattered.
Grooming gestures
Women will start to play with wine glass, hair, small purse etc reflexly grooming themselves. Men likewise will change posture becoming more overt with feet pointing in direction of their chosen woman. Gestures become more flamboyant, if talking there will be matching body language with both flirtees leaning in to “hear” better what the other one has to say.
Men flirtation signals
Men will use the prolonged stare, combined with the up and down look. The man will close in and narrow the gap between them. To tell if someone likes you watch the feet!!!!Feet will always point to the person they are most interested in, be it the leader of the group or the woman he is flirting with.
Signs of disinterest for both sexes include crossing arms or legs, rolling eyes, looking away or over the shoulder and closing off the body to advances, i.e. turning slightly away or presenting the back view.

Personal Stylist suggestion is that you brighten up your wardrobe with a bit of sunshine this summer by opting for orange shades to add vibrancy to your fashion look.
Peachy blush tones graduates into a neon apricot and tangerine, coral: they are the most effective tones to add a splash of sartorial fun to your day, suitable for both work and play giving a bold new dynamism.
No doubt: it attracts attention and radiate confidence and optimism.
It’s a great way to make tanned skin pop, and it contrasts beautiful with summer shades, including the stark whites favoured in warmer months.
LUELLA SS09
It has been seen in the SS09 collections color palette of several fashion designers: total look for SALVATORE FERRAGAMO, different shades mixed together for RICHARD NICOLL, romatic and bold for LUELLA, sheering layered with JOHN ROCHA and BYBLOS, architectural for C. KANE.
t brings a glow of bright light to everything, great in accessories choice too: in a couple of second you can brighten up you outfit with a scarf (DKNY ), breathtaking high heel shoes (3.1 PHILIP LIM/ JEAN PAUL GAULTIER), clutch( Bottega Veneta/ STELLA McCARTNEY/ MIU MIU) or tote bag ( PUCCI).
And dont forget to blush your cheek in the same shade of your look!!
Even though Christmas has passed, the cold is still all around with; Snowfalls and ice mean we’ve lost the count of the layers we’ re wearing…Yet I’m really looking forward to the arrival of Spring, probably because I’ve spend the last couple of days searching the web for the new S/S 09 Ad Campaigns!!
Gisele Bundchen & Kate Moss by Mario Testino; Dolce & Gabanna S/S 09 : Mariacarla Boscono; Just Cavalli S/S 09 : Kate Moss & Justin Gaston Mert & Marcus; Chanel S/S 09 : Heidi Mount by Karl Lagerfeld; Marc by Marc Jacobs S/S 09 so many great campaigns to choose from!
The one I really love and made me feel in the right ‘spring mood’ is the Burberry campaign, imagined by Christopher Bailey and photographed by Mario Testino. It reflects the brand in all its British romanticism and recreates that feeling of the English countryside. The Personal Stylist has matched everything in an elegant way: the colour palette plays with beiges, golden khakis and dim taupe pinks, and the edit of clothes and accessories is a blend of urban and rural style.
And we also see the arrival of a new member in the Burberry gang: Eden Clarke. Is she the new Agyness Dean? She made the cover of November Vogue seen here with Lily Donaldson, photographer Emily Hope, Actor Alex Pettyfer, musicians George Craig and Sam Beeton with models Alexina Graham and Richard Wyndham.
